We are happy to share that Booklist has given a STARRED review to The Cookie Cure by Susan and Laura Stachler!

The review says, "This deeply heartfelt and moving memoir recounts how the Stachlers' darkest days ended in the triumph of building a successful business, each woman with her truest friend and ally by her side. Their memoir is a testament to the bond between mothers and daughters, and a reminder that there is always hope."​The full review will appear in the December 1 issue of Booklist.

When twenty-two-year-old Susan Stachler was diagnosed with cancer, her mother, Laura, was struck by déjà vu: the same illness that took her sister’s life was threatening to take her daughter’s too. Heartbroken but steadfast, Laura pledged to help Susan through the worst of her treatments. When they discovered that Laura’s homemade ginger cookies soothed the side effects of Susan’s chemo, the mother-daughter duo soon found themselves opening Susansnaps and sharing their gourmet gingersnaps with the world.​Told with admirable grace and infinite hope, The Cookie Cure is about more than baked goods and cancer—it’s about fighting for your life and for your dreams.
